The United States acquired Wake Island in 1899 through a formal agreement with the Spanish government, which had control over the island prior to the Spanish-American War. The U.S. paid $20,000 for the island as part of the Treaty of Paris, which concluded the war and resulted in Spain ceding various territories to the United States. Thus, the purchase price for Wake Island was $20,000.
